We know that the building must form a right angle with the ground, so the triangle formed by the ladder, the wall, and the distance between the base of the ladder and the wall is a right triangle. We can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the distance the ladder is from the building.
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
We know that the ladder is the hypotenuse because it is opposite the right angle.
a^2 + b^2 = 20^2
Substitute the length of the other side and solve.
a^2 + 17^2 = 20^2
a^2 + 289 = 400
a^2 = 111
The distance from the wall to the bottom of the ladder is the square root of 111 or approximately 10.5357 feet
The first thing you should know in this case is that a circumference has a total measure in 360 degrees.
We have then that the formula to find EG in this case is:
EG + GF + FE = 360
We cleared EG:
EG = 360-GF-FE
We substitute the values:
EG = 360-83-66
EG = 211
Answer
EG = 211 degrees.
Slope is -9 and y intercept is -6
1/18 because 1/6 of 1/3 of the girls painted their nail red and 1/6 of 1/3 is 1/6*1/3 or 1/18.
Answer:
<
Step-by-step explanation:
-4.2 + 1.5 = -2.7 and -5.4 + 2.1 = -3.3
-2.7 is less than -3.3
